Hiking
La Santona is a small mountain village crossed by the historic Via Vandelli, an 18th-century road built by Duke Francesco III d'Este to connect Modena and Massa. The panoramic meadows offer sweeping views of Mount Cimone and the surrounding Apennine ridges.
Here are several accommodations and restaurants steeped in local tradition, such as the Conca d'Oro and Miramonti restaurants, the Tazioli Bar-Alimentari, and the Ca' dell'Alpino Restaurant and B&B.
